If that means I never buy another Nokia phone, so be it. I loved my Nokia back in the 90s, but the company really lost its way, producing a succession of really lousy "fashion" phone designs that were totally impractical, and failing to realize that quad band and Bluetooth were de rigeur for a business phone. I thought the N series showed that they had gotten a clue, but this stupid comment--by their VP of open source, no less--really has me wondering. mathew _______________________________________________ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@xxxxxxxxx https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
